According to Zhang Zhongliang's introduction, this area was planned by King Ning.
It seems that Prince Ning is a business genius.
Then Zhang Zhongliang said proudly: "I heard that the Shengfa Department Store in Yingtianfu was rebuilt from the original Changhui Temple. What a coincidence. This place was originally the Zhaoming Temple in Lin'an. Since the temple was established, it has cost 1,500 yuan.
for many years."
"Oh, is it so?"
Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows. This Prince Ning was really competitive. The thousand-year-old temple was demolished just like this.
Zhang Zhongliang said with some memories in his eyes: "Speaking of which, when I was a child, my mother and I came to Zhaoming Temple to offer incense."
"It would be a pity that Zhaoming Temple should be demolished like this."
"Master Yang, don't feel sorry. The whole Zhaoming Temple has been moved to the outskirts of the city. If you have time someday, can you take Master Yang to have a look?"
"That's not necessary." Yang Xuan said, "Prince Ning is really generous in relocating such a large temple."
Although the goods have been shipped yesterday, they have not yet been put into storage. They are being counted and put into storage at this time.
After a rough tour around Zhaoming Temple, Zhang Zhongliang invited Yang Xuan to a nearby restaurant.
Just like yesterday, Prince Ning was already waiting in the restaurant. They greeted each other again and then took their seats.
Today is much more lively than yesterday.
Yesterday there were only a few people including Ning Wang Zhang Zhongliang, but today, there are more than ten people sitting at a huge round table.
Prince Ning introduced them one by one, and they were basically the backbone of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.
"We are gathering today to cleanse Chairman Yang on behalf of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. Hahahaha, Mr. Yang, please..."
As soon as the opening wine was drunk, everyone sitting here came up one by one and toasted with various names. After going around, Yang Xuan was already a little drunk.
Prince Ning saw that the fire was almost done and said, "Brother Yang, you founded Shengfa Company at such a young age, and also pioneered a department store market. I really admire you."
"Prince Ning is overly praised."
"Hahahaha." Prince Ning laughed heartily again, and then said: "Brother Yang, look at the difference between my Lin'an City and Yingtian Mansion."
"Lin'an City is prosperous and has a strong business atmosphere, which is comparable to Yingtian Mansion." Yang Xuan praised as usual: "I just walked around here, it was really eye-opening. I heard that it was the work of the prince, which is really amazing.
."
After some business flattery, Prince Ning glanced at everyone and coughed twice. All the backbones of the chamber of commerce present understood that the prince was about to get down to business.
"Brother Yang, I have always respected talents and am eager for talents. Talents like Brother Yang really amaze me. I wonder if Brother Yang would like to come to my Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and become the vice president?"
Yang Xuan was confused at first. He was originally the president of Yingtian Mansion. What was the difference between him and the vice president?
But when Prince Ning said it so solemnly, there must be deep meaning.
Looking at Prince Ning's seemingly hearty smile, Yang Xuan suddenly came up with an idea: Could Prince Ning be trying to win over me?
In his previous life, he also encountered this situation. The boss of a competing company invited him to dinner and then wanted to let him change jobs.
The scene then was almost the same as it is now.
But Prince Ning misjudged Yang Xuan's situation. He was always conceited even to the emperor. How could you, an ambitious vassal king, attract Yang Xuan?
"Ah hahaha, is Prince Ning drunk? I am the branch president of Yingtian Mansion."
Yang Xuan's words were purely a tactful rejection, and smart people should be able to hear it.
However, Prince Ning obviously did not want to give up easily, and continued: "I am not drunk, but Brother Yang drank too much. Hahahaha, what I mean is that Brother Yang came to my Lin'an Mansion, nominally as the vice president, but actually
You have the final say on the entire Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce."
Prince Ning's words were equivalent to clarifying his words. Even Yang Xiao and Guan Yunrong on the side understood it, and Yang Xuan could no longer pretend to be stupid.
He stood up and held up his hands: "First of all, I would like to thank Lord Ning for trusting and admiring me. However, I still have many properties in Yingtian Mansion. Perhaps in the eyes of Lord Ning, these properties are not worth mentioning, but they are all my hard work.
So... I can only live up to the prince’s kindness.”
Yang Xuan's words were very tactful. After all, when Prince Ning spoke, he always had to give people a step down.
However, before Prince Ning could speak, the backbone of the Chamber of Commerce on the side slammed the table and stood up.
"Boy, who do you think you are talking to? You don't even give Prince Ning any face?"
This man is in his forties, his name is Xiong Fang, he is a bald man with a fierce look. According to the introduction just now, this guy works in water transportation. Although he is the backbone of the Chamber of Commerce, he is a real man in the green forest.
To be precise, he is a water bandit leader and a dock tyrant.
"The prince appreciates you and wants to promote you. Don't be ignorant. Not to mention your little property in Yingtian Mansion, even if he asks you to move the ancestral grave here, you have to do it."
As Xiong Fang spoke, he walked towards Yang Xuan. His majestic body had an intimidating aura.
Yang Xuan glanced at Prince Ning and saw his stunned expression. It seemed that this incident was beyond his expectation, but he did not speak to stop him.
He didn't believe that at the banquet hosted by King Ning, this guy would dare to be so arrogant without King Ning's acquiescence.
Since Prince Ning wanted to use this method, Yang Xuan didn't mind showing his tough side at all.
He stopped his eldest brother who was about to get up, but he stood up suddenly and looked at Xiong Fang with contemptuous eyes. He paused for three seconds. He was mainly afraid that this stupid man would not be able to feel his contemptuous eyes, so
He just stared for two more seconds.
It wasn't until he saw the change in Xiong Fang's face that he said, "Who are you? I'm talking to Prince Ning, and it's your turn to interrupt. Mr. Yu, I am a cabinet minister appointed by the imperial court. Mr. Private,
I am the president of the Yingtianfu branch, what qualifications do you have to dare to reprimand me?"
With these few words, Xiong Fang fully realized Yang Xuan's contempt from the inside out. His face gradually turned ferocious, and even his eyes turned red.
In terms of verbal disputes, he was no match for Yang Xuan. He said ferociously: "I'm just a rough guy. I don't know so much etiquette. To reason with me, I have to see if you can resist my fist first."
With that said, Xiong Fang took a step forward, and at the same time stretched out his big iron-like hands and crossed his arms towards Yang Xuan's neck.
But the next moment, everyone felt their eyes blurred, there were two "bang bangs", mixed with two screams of pain, and then Xiong Fang's majestic body rose from the ground, directly smashing through the carved hollow window, and directly fell from the second floor.
The building fell down.
The air seemed to be frozen, and everyone in the entire box was stunned.
Only Yang Xiao dusted off his sleeves and then sat back in his seat leisurely.
It took a full second or two for everyone to react.
Some people exclaimed, some ran to the window and looked down, and more people stared at Yang Xiao with wide eyes.
That Xiong Fang, a tall and strong man weighing two to three hundred pounds, was thrown out in such an understatement?
But at this moment, Prince Ning finally spoke. With an angry look on his face, he slapped the table and shouted.
